Title: Duff plays "It's So Easy" with Avenged Sevenfold! Post by: Bodhi on April 25, 2011, 11:34:03 AM DUFF MCKAGAN Performs GUNS N' ROSES Classic With AVENGED SEVENFOLD (Video) - Apr. 22, 2011 Video footage of Duff McKagan (GUNS N' ROSES, VELVET REVOLVER, DUFF MCKAGAN'S LOADED) performing the GUNS N' ROSES classic "It's So Easy" with AVENGED SEVENFOLD at the third annual Revolver Golden Gods Awards, which took place this past Wednesday night (April 20) at Club Nokia in downtown Los Angeles, California, can be viewed below. In a 2006 interview, MTV News asked AVENGED SEVENFOLD singer M. Shadows if GUNS N' ROSES was his band's biggest influence. "GUNS N' ROSES is my favorite band of all time," he said. "It's funny 'cause we just did a thing for the [Los Angeles Times] and the guy's like, 'People compare 'em to GUNS N' ROSES and Shadows walked out with a GN'R shirt,' and he thought that was weird that I would, but the thing is, I'm not ashamed of the bands I love. I love that band. You can compare us all you want they're a huge reason why I'm even in a band and even write music. My dad gave me 'Appetite For Destruction' when it first came out; he saw [GUNS N' ROSES] on 'Headbangers Ball', and they're a huge inspiration. METALLICA and MEGADETH and GN'R, those are bands that I'll never deny loving ? those are bands that kind of made me and made this band kind of what it is. We don't try to be like, 'Oh, we're becoming a big band, so we're gonna pretend like we don't have any influences.'" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGJuo6len_I Title: Re: Duff plays "It's So Easy" with Avenged Sevenfold!

You guys didn?t get to soundcheck with Duff. How do you think the performance went? M. Shadows: It was great. I think we were more nervous than him. Because we were like, ?We haven?t tried it with you yet.? And it was bizarre that we didn?t put anything together. And we kept asking him, and he was like, ?Yeah, I know how to play it.? And we were like, ?Yeah, we know how to play it, too, but it?d be good if we could at least run through it once.? And then he?s like, ?Oh, I?ll sing the vocals with you, too.? And we were like, ?All right.? So all that stuff was on the fly. And I thought it went great. I was really surprised as well. Obviously, he knew how to play the song perfectly, but I was more worried about us, not him, playing it with him. But I thought it was great, he?s a great guy, and it went really smoothly. I wish everything could go that easily. Title: Re: Duff plays "It's So Easy" with Avenged Sevenfold! Post by: JDA on June 03, 2011, 05:16:20 PM Great cover, the singer has the Axl sound in this one.

Yeah I dont think they ever shared a stage with Duff before. A7X has been around for 13 years im pretty sure that was the first time. Title: Re: Duff plays "It's So Easy" with Avenged Sevenfold! Post by: One.In.A.Million on June 08, 2011, 02:33:04 PM Avenged Sevenfold are super GN'R fans, so it must be like a childhood dream to get to play with people like Duff. 8)
